The newest version of Android, Android 5.1 Lollipop, is being installed in Nexus devices, accompanied by some new changes. One of these changes involves modifying the function of both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi toggles in the Quick Settings panel.
Users will now be able to connect their Bluetooth-enabled devices or Wi-Fi hotspots without having to go to their settings app. The steps for accessing the panel are still the same – By using a finger to swipe down from the top of the screen to show their notifications, with another swipe revealing quick settings. In the previous versions of the Android, when users tap the icon, it becomes the standard on or off switch button. The Settings feature gets launched when the setting name is tapped, which lets users connect to a Wi-Fi network or a device with Bluetooth.
But there's a difference with Android 5.1 – Users will now find small arrows sitting next to the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth labels. This tells them that there is a drop-down menu available. When the name is tapped, a screen will pop up within the panel, letting users stay on the present screen.
You will be able to get a quick access to these frequently used settings, depending on the version of Android you're using. Some of these are only available with Android 5.0 and higher. To access Wi-Fi, simply touch the Wi-Fi icon to switch it on or off. You can also touch the 'Wi-Fi' name of the network to change your saved networks. When you see arrows next to the icon, this means that the data is being transferred from your gadget to the Web (up arrow), or vice versa (down arrow).
For Bluetooth, you can also touch the icon to switch Bluetooth off or on. Then touch the name 'Bluetooth' to manage your enabled devices. If you're using a mobile hotspot, touch the hotspot icon to share your gadget's Internet connection with another device. This can only be done if you've used a portable hotspot recently. Touch and hold the icon to remove this setting until you want to switch it back on.
When you have a cellular network with an Android 5.0, just touch the network icon to open up the control panel to gain easy access to the amount of data usage. There will also be a small up-and-down arrow found on the right side of the network signal indicator. This arrow signifies the data being transferred from your phone to the Internet, and from the Internet to your device.

A road trip in a 2012 Chrysler Town & Country Limited is an immensely comfortable ride with technology features and entertainment options for everyone. Second- and third-row DVD players will occupy the kids' attention for hours on end, and because they're using wireless headphones, mom and dad can drive without distraction. At some point, the whole family will want in on some good old fashioned game time, so we've chosen a few of our favorite games that you can play on your family road trip.
I Spy – A legendary game. The first player begins by saying, "I spy with my little eye…" and then gives either the color or first letter of the object in mind. Then the guessing begins and whoever guesses correctly gets to choose the next object. Award bonus points to whomever picks a Chrysler 200, 300, and Town & Country.
Rock, Paper, Scissors – The classic game that's survived the test of time. Just make sure that everyone is playing by the same rules – do you throw down your hand on "scissors" or use "shoot?" The result of a miscommunication can get pretty ugly.
Brain Quest® – For 20 years, Brain Quest has delighted kids and parents with fun, curriculum-based question-and-answer quiz games. The quiz decks range in difficulty level from toddler to seventh-grade and you can also find decks based on different subjects like math and reading. For a road trip in a Town & Country, Brain Quest for the Car is a great choice.
Name the Song – A perfect game with which to use the SiriusXM™ Satellite Radio in the 2012 Town & Country Limited. Choose from over 100 channels to find the right style or genre for you and your kids to play.
The Alphabet game – The game starts with the letter "A." The first person to spot an "A" (then "B" and "C" and so on) in a sign, billboard, or somewhere else yells out that word. For example, when someone sees the "Town & Country" trademark on the tailgate of a fellow driver on the road, they would yell out, "'C' in Town & Country."

Alcohol-free festivals, Irish baseball stars, and high-flying as an air hostess
The top stories of the week on Irish Times Abroad
The Buddhafield festival in Devon has a group of Irish emigrants at the helm.
This weekend in Devon, 3,500 happy campers are gathering for Buddhafield, an alcohol and intoxicant-free festival. Darragh Murphy meets the crew of Irish emigrants at the helm to find out how they got involved, and whether they think the concept could work in Ireland?
"Genealogy is about personal identity, not ethnicity... It's based on the simple but powerful premise that each and every person has a story worth knowing," writes Fiona Fitzsimons of the Irish Family History Centre, in response to an article last week which questioned why we need to trace the ancestry of famous visitors like Meghan Markle.
Have you experience of buying a home outside Ireland? What was the bidding/offer process like? Are there such things as "bidding wars", sealed envelope bids, etc? Is there more or less transparency than the Irish system? We want to hear from you.
What's it like to work as an air hostess for an international airline? It has its ups and downs, says Lauren Reilly in this week's Working Abroad Q&A, but she loves it. "I have seen places I had only dreamed of, and I feel so lucky. What job in Ireland would send you to the Maldives for 30 hours?"
Did you know that during baseball's "Emerald Era" in the late 19th century, more than 40 per cent of NBL players boasted Irish heritage? Many became celebrities known all over America, including Mike "King" Kelly, who inspired the very first pop record. His remarkable story is written by Nathan Mannion of Epic, the Irish Emigration Museum .
Also in Abroad this week, Ruairi Glasheen shares his experience of taking his bodhran to Iran to make a documentary about drumming, Kathleen Curran tells us why she's collecting the precious memories of 1950s emigrants to Britain, and we caught up with Minister for Diaspora Affairs to find out what he's been up to since taking office a year ago, and what he's learned: "The Irish diaspora is not a resource. It's a community," he says.
You'll find plenty more stories by and about the Irish diaspora this week on irishtimes.com/abroad.

When baseball's spiritual second half kicks off Friday, keep an eye on the team trying to make history.
No, not the Cubs. Their mission calls for them to end history (of 107 years without a World Series title), not make it.
We're talking about the Giants. Who, at 57-33, turned out to be baseball's best team before the All-Star break.
Who vie to win their fourth World Series in seven seasons or, if you want to sound cooler, their fourth consecutive championship in an even-numbered year.
"We're aware of what these guys have accomplished, but we're very much aware, too, that you can't rely on what you've accomplished in the past to answer to what these guys are going to do," Giants GM Bobby Evans said in a telephone interview. "I certainly appreciate the benefit of that experience. I think it brings with it a little bit of confidence. It builds some expectation within each of these guys.
"But it's nothing that you really get too caught up in."
That shouldn't prevent you from getting caught up in it. Only two franchises have won four World Series crowns in a seven-year span or less. The Red Sox did so from 1912 to 1918. And the Yankees did so via myriad permutations between 1936 and 1962, when they won it all 16 times in that 27-year span, and again from 1996 to 2000.
Obviously, the Giants' legacy would be even greater had they also won, or even qualified for the playoffs, in 2011, 2013 and 2015. Yet in this ultra-competitive era, when clubs no longer can blame their market size for incompetence, it speaks volumes about the Giants' culture that they've been able to sit out every other October, use their championship-fueled revenues to go out and take huge risks — like signing Johnny Cueto and Jeff Samardzija to mega-deals last winter — and count on future Hall of Fame manager Bruce Bochy and his coaches to integrate the new guys and get the ship sailing smoothly again.
That aggressiveness figures to color the Giants' moves as the Aug. 1 non-waivers trade deadline approaches. Evans said he wants "depth for the bullpen," and the Yankees (see item 10) could shop closer Aroldis Chapman.
"All of us want to be aggressive, but we don't want to be reckless," Evans said. "That's the balance."
Here are nine other story lines, New York bias fully intact, to monitor this second half:
2. The Indians. Terry Francona frowns upon mythology, narratives and any other outside noise. So of course the guy who managed the 2004 Red Sox to their first title since 1918 now has to face questions about trying to turn long-woebegone Cleveland into a City of Champions after LeBron James and the Cavaliers broke the Midwestern town's 51-year slump by beating the Warriors in the NBA Finals.
The Indians (52-36) lead the AL Central by 6 ½ games over the Tigers (46-43), and they won their first 11 games after the Cavs' championship for a 14-game winning streak overall. I asked Francona whether he thought his team tangibly benefited from its basketball sibling's success.
"I would say mostly no," Francona said. "But what I do think happened was, the city just went bananas, which is cool. Right after that, we got hot. So I think there was a little carryover as far as fans go, because they were in the mood to be happy, and all of a sudden the Indians are winning. So when we came home, there were better crowds.
"I do think the guys watched it. I watched it. I walked the upper deck [of Progressive Field] and I followed [the victory parade] around. It was neat. How could you not be excited? It's right in your backyard. I think they enjoyed it, but you still have to go to your job. But I don't see how it can hurt."
3. Ichiro Suzuki. While it has been quite the trudge to 3,000 hits — Ichiro hasn't been an above-average offensive player since 2010 — he approaches the finish line with a flourish, sitting on a .335/.412/.390 slash line with the revived Marlins as he has 2,990 hits. He'll reach his milestone as a relevant player on a relevant team. Good for him and good for baseball.
4. David Ortiz. The long goodbye, announced ahead of time and replete with parting gifts, has become a near-annual tradition in the baseball world: Chipper Jones in 2012, Mariano Rivera in 2013, Derek Jeter in 2014 and now Big Papi this year. However, none of Ortiz's predecessors in this group departed on top, personally or team-wise. With the 40-year-old Ortiz as dominant as ever, and with the offensively prodigious Red Sox in the playoff mix, could Ortiz raise the bar for this gig?
[mlbvideo id="909970083″ width="640″ height="360″ /]
5. Cubs. A 6-15 record in their last 21 games has removed all references to the 1998 Yankees. Now it's just a matter of whether this team is the one meant to end the schneid. President of baseball operations Theo Epstein figures to be active this month; the Cubs, like the Giants, could be suitors for Chapman if he becomes available.
6. Noah Syndergaard. He has turned into the Mets' version of Wile E. Coyote. Instead of falling off cliffs and returning for more action, he experiences arm problems and keeps coming back. The Mets would prefer to limit his drama to strikeouts, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards at this juncture. Syndergaard's ability to thrive amidst his right arm aches will help define this Mets campaign.
7. Daniel Murphy. The good news for the Mets is that they play the Nationals only six more times, which means Murphy can go deep off his old team only another 15 or 16 times, tops. How good can Murphy get in this career season? How high will he finish in the NL Most Valuable Player voting? How much more can he make the Mets regret their decision to not seriously pursue him last winter?
8. Michael Fulmer. There's no Mets regret here, not with Yoenis Cespedes continuing to thrive. Nevertheless, the rookie right-hander, the main piece in the Mets' trade for Cespedes last July 31, has been the Tigers' best pitcher as Detroit tries to return to the postseason after last year's 74-87 showing. Can he be the AL Rookie of the Year?
9. Royals. They exemplify just how difficult it is to keep a good run going. Banged up and underperforming, they're fortunate to own a 45-43 record, as their run differential is 352-378. They'll require a major boost of some sort to make a third straight World Series.
10. Yankees. They've already set one unofficial record: Earliest external invocation of the "Buy or sell?" debate. That happened when they dropped to, let's say, 8-14. Will the Yankees sell off Chapman and Carlos Beltran if they don't excel in their 10-game homestand out of the break? They've come too far, passing up on big free agents the prior two offseasons, not to do so, haven't they? It's up to the team to render this question moot.

Post on Help A Newbie Choose A Class? in ClassesBy Aellia, postedI was hoping some BDO veterans could help someone considering buying the game choose a class. After watching A LOT of videos and reading a couple forums I've narrowed it down to about 3; Dark Knight, Maehwa, and Valkyrie.
I was hoping some people could give me some pros and cons on each one and give me some advice on them as well.
In case people wanted to better understand why I chose these three; Valkyrie because of tankiness and surviveabillty plus seems to do well in groups, Dark Knight because it looks like she deals pretty good damage and has some flashy moves, and finally Maehwa because she seems to have a pretty fun play style.
Also what do people think of Tamers?
Post on Why are Kakao ignoring us? in GeneralBy fallout, posted3 weeks now, no Valk shield fix. It's also now been 2 months since the Valk PVE + cast speed buff in KR also, and no word on that.
Post made 17:04, locked 17:06.
Maybe if Kakao were as fast at fixing bugs as they are at moderating their forum, we'd have the shield fixed and our cast speed buffed by now. :thinking:
Fix Valkyrie's shield.
Post on How do I get better gear for 51+? in ValkyrieBy Asilee, postedWell, here goes...
I'm a lvl 51 Valkyrie and I've been soloing this game for a very long time. It'd be of great help if someone could tell me how to begin on getting better gear. I don't have any friends in game nor am I part of a guild, obviously. I have other characters I play on as well that could use the help, too: Dark Knight -50, Maewah - 41, and Kunoichi - 44. Thanks in advance.
The requirements for said guild requires discord for the most part and I'm not too particularly a fan of one of the requirements being that I have to talk to people every day I'm in this guilld or end up being booted from the guild. So I haven't found a guild lust yet.
Never mind, it seems that I thought the forums would be better than the people in-game. Nope, still the same ol' people.
Thanks for nothing.

Post on Valkyrie propaganda debunked. in ValkyrieBy Sulky, postedDisclaimer: I am aware of the block situation, however that has not been confirmed to be a bug or a ninja nerf at this moment in time, and does not discredit the information provided below.
This post has no connection to the Block issue, and is a general response to the valkyrie player base for its relentless attempts at getting the class unwarranted buffs.
Since the release of valkyrie's awakening in November 2016, the class has been subject to a lot of harsh remarks from it's mostly casual player base, donning nicknames such as "Lifeskill class" or "Sheep gathering class"
The class requires high APM and good mechanical skill to be properly executed, but instead of playing the class as it was designed, the playerbase has been kicking up a storm to have their life made easier for them, when in fact they have already had it way easier than the majority of the classes in Black Desert, aside from a few obvious exceptions which still need tweaking.
Before we get to damage, which I will be talking about later (way too much) let's talk about utility.
Valkyrie's intended role in BDO was as a tanky support/utility role. Which was unique and made the class stand out from the crowd.
With abilities like Breath of Ellion allowing you to heal friends, Ellions blessing allowing you to give party mates 100% resistance from all crowd control for 6 seconds and last but not least, heaven's echo giving a party-wide accuracy buff of a staggering 12% for a whopping 60 seconds.
However, over time, valkyrie slowly became a beast in itself, becoming known to the playerbase as one of, if not the best 1v1 class in the game pre-awakening.
With awakening however, people who were used to this lifestyle expected the same thing, tankiness, utility, mobility and damage
And that is exactly what they got, however many of them are too lazy to achieve the levels required that give the class all of the above and want it handed to them on a platter instead.
Utility was provided by Wave of Light, a unique skill which pulls players and monsters together, allowing for well coordinated setups to be executed with other classes such as the sorceresses black hole ability.
Purificatione also has hidden utility, hidden behind the veil of terrible google translated skill descriptions, when an enemy is hit by the spell, allies around you will be healed.
footage: https://my.mixtape.moe/akphid.webm
This came with the upgraded block, blocking about 75% more damage than shield and sword, lance and shield is an intimidating force to be reckoned with on the battlefield, which is amplified by lingering super armour, which valkyries and warriors get after using their block ability, this means that if a valkyrie blocks, then stops blocking they are IMMUNE to crowd control, this means that the valkyrie is completely safe to cast any skill it wants, many valks on the forum will pretend that this is a trait exclusive to warrior, but here is footage to debunk that.
As you can see in the links above, the valkyrie is not bound, however in the clip below, she gets bound.
Valkyrie's Super armour block is also 360 degrees, meaning that while a valkyrie is blocking you can go behind them and attack them as much as you want, but you cannot CC them, making them incredibly overpowered when fighting against a class without a grab, proof of this can be found here: https://my.mixtape.moe/rrkbkf.webm
Another one of valkyries (many) strong points, is that in the hands of a capable user, valkyrie can be as fast as the more nimble "assassin" type classes in black desert, which in reality is pretty ridiculous as mobility and damage is the selling points of these classes,why would anyone play these when valkyrie provides that with extra tankiness and utility? Proof here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoHWIjyRTp4
This is what seemed to be most underwhelming for the casual player base, their damage. when people play an awakened class they expect something like wizard, a class where they can press 1,2,3 and see flashy effects and BIG DAMAGE with little effort or execution required.
With abilities like Sanctitas de Enslar amplifying your own damage while Purificatione decreases your opponent's defensive capabilities, a valkyrie with good mechanical skill can exploit her kit beyond most players expectations, allowing for incredible burst potential, more than most "DPS" classes in Black Desert's roster, as you can see in the following clips, a valkyrie with very average gear (181/183) is destroying a warrior, a class that is innately tanky and takes less damage than every other class
Valkyrie's gear: http://i.imgur.com/U3Dd9iS.jpg
It's not merely coincidence that 2 of the highest leveled characters on both EU and NA are valkyries, the class is a beast at not only PVP, but PVE too, with it's excellent mobility and self buffs/utility, combined with its amazing damage the class is regarded as one of the best in high end PVE spots, her only drawback being lack of 360 aoe, meaning some mobs may get behind you and you will either have to waste time killing stragglers or move to the next pack.
Footage of high level valkyrie PVE: https://clips.twitch.tv/CovertMushyOwlNotATK
the only drawback is, that valkyrie shines when she hits level 60, which the majority of the playerbase has yet to reach, and may make users feel like the class is lacking in departments where she is more than adequately equipped, the Valkyrie has become a frankenstein, a jack of all trades that is not just good at everything, but excellent, with the buffs EU/Na has still not recieved from korea coming soon, the class is going to become an unstoppable juggernaut, pushing out classes who were only designed to do damage out of the picture.
TLDR:Valkyrie is borderline OP currently and with buffs just around the corner, she may very well become OP.

Post on Suche deutschsprachige Gilde die einen alten Hasen aufnimmt in Gilden RekrutierungBy Veryfunny123, postedHi Black Desert Online-Gamer,
Ich suche eine deutschsprachige Gilde die einen alten Hasen aufnimmt.
Hab ca 10 Monate auf US Servern gespielt und es mit 2 charactern auf 57 geschafft und 4 weiteren auf 55.
Hab vor kurzem auf EU neu angefangen und bin jetzt Stufe 58 mit einer Valkyrie und hab auch nen Warrior auf 56. Hab Gathering und Alchemy auf Artisan.
Wer einen alten Hasen (35), Berufstätig, aufnimmt und interessiert ist aus dem Game das meiste Geld zu schöpfen der is bei mir richtig!
So I recently got my Valkyrie to level 56, and began the Black Spirits Awakening questline. However, when I got to the NPC in Calpheon I couldn't talk to the NPC because it said I didn't have enough knowledge. I've never had this issue Awakening any other class, and I was wondering how do I acquire the knowledge I need to proceed through the questline?
Hi! I'm looking to bye some Valkyrie outfits? Mainly the Kylia outfit set with weapons, but honestly anything would work as long as it's both the outfit and weapons ....If you are selling some, please let me know and I'll buy it off you first! I tried asking in game but no luck there...IDK where else to ask? IDK if this is the right place...so sorry if it's not
Update - I got it!
Post on Need help on multiple characters. in New AdventurersBy Uee_6655, postedHello forum, I'm a newbie currently one month in kinda non stop and love the game.
At the moment I tried several classes, lvl55 wizard, lvl53 tamer, lvl51 sorcerer, lvl51 Valkyrie, and lvl50 musa. To be honest I like all of them, and I'd love to get them all to 56 and go awakened.
Now I realize that lvl56 is just the beginning, skill points in 56 is not enough for most classes to be close to be fully fledged, I might have to grind more in the future. And it's kind of necessary to level life skills for more sources of income.
My questions are:
1. Should I level all life skills on ONE character and other characters would be more like alts, or should I divide them up to make them specialize in certain professions like tamer be the cook sorc be the sailor etc etc. ? What are the pros and cons for these two directions?
Thank you :3

Post on Class Opinions in GeneralBy Veyana Eldunari, postedHello!
I'm recently returning to the game and have been playing my Valkyrie. However, I'm under the impression (due to things friends have said a well as channel chat, I know both can't really be trusted lol) that Valk is one of the / the weakest class post awakening.
My question is: is it bad enough that I should consider going warrior instead? I like both classes so really wouldn't mind either way. I've tried looking up videos of both post awakening and it's always hard to tell if the class is viable or if it's just a large gear / level difference.
My Valk is currently halfway to 57 and warrior would take some leveling but that takes like a day so no big deal.
Just hoping to get some opinions on people who have either played both classes extensively or at least one of them extensively and can give some feedback. Thank you!!
Post on Illisae's Character Templates in Art & MediaBy Illisae, postedIllisae's Character Templates and WIPs
Hello there! I've recently been adding more and more of my many character templates to the beauty album. I figured I'd post the three I have up here and maybe other works in progress as I go. I'm also more than open to requests, though I can't promise that I'll complete them. For more pictures and creations feel free to take a peek at my BDO related tumblr http://calpheon-rebel.tumblr.com/ ♥
Ranger:Witch:Valkyrie:Tamer:What I'm currently working on/Coming Soon:
Warrior PresetSorcerer PresetWitch PresetAny Further Issues/Fixes:
I've had someone on the Beauty Album comment on my original ranger skin that I stole it from someone else because my templates are listed under the name "Sicero".
I just want to take a second to clear that up. From when I started the game (last spring) til about a week ago my Family name in game was Sicero. Recently I changed it to Illisae because I have -always- hated my old family name. Because of this, any template that I made or started in the past has the name Sicero on it, and I often mod off some of my old but original creations.
When I do mod off someone else's creation I do make sure to state that mine is not the original, but has been intensely modified (IE: by the time I'm done with it, looks hardly anything like their upload did.) Just like I did with my Valkyrie, which is the only character I have ever done this with.
Bottom line, TLDR: I haven't and I don't copy people or their templates. I don't like to copy people, and when my work isn't 100% my work, I say so. This issue is also resolved now and the aforementioned person has acknowledged their understanding that I haven't copied them.
Post on Warrior, Valk, Zerk in ClassesBy KairosProject, postedSo I'm looking for a tank class to play on BDO. I know that the current "tank" classes are warrior, valk and zerk.
My question is: Which one is the best on what? Meaning which one is the best for pve, 1v1 pvp, small scale pvp, and siege pvp, and why they are the best. What are the main differences between them?
Post on Valks Rerolling? in ValkyrieBy Valkrys, postedHey fellow Valks,
Just kinda curious how many of us are left? My guild still has a fairly high amount of valks compared to our numbers(about 10% of the guild is Valks) but I notice a lot of guilds seem to be lacking Valks when I face them in Node wars.
Curious how many have rerolled and if so to what class?
I said the second I saw Darknight if the awakening looked fluid and mobile I was 100% going to reroll and after seeing the awakening video that more or less decided it for me. For me when I first chose Valk i thought it was more of a hybrid between warriors and Sorc/Witch but that was not even close to what the class was. Valk isnt bad its just average at everything.
As such I'm spending the next two months preparing myself for DK release and awakening, gonna have to go back to Karanda and Kzarka camping to get fresh boxes and go do Kutum for another one of those again but I think it will be worth it in the long run. Valks have become increasing stale for me now and seeing how little the devs care for our class with the lack of attention we receive when we so badly receive it has more or less killed my drive to remain relevant.
Post on my list after 5k hours in SuggestionsBy bloody fetus, postedWhat i don't like so far
valk specific - i want wave of light to hit the ground where i am pointing, I've tried auto target on and off hundreds of times, it's almost comical seeing it land behind me, a great ability thats effectiveness is drastically reduced because it rarely lands where im pointing.
the stamina cost of lancia training left or right is the same as promptness, it is a fraction of the value and costs the same
if i jump accidentally with lance out standing still it takes near 3 seconds to move, we use promptness constantly and this a ridiculous penalty for jumping accidentally
i want to lock any ability i decided to hotkey, activating vow of trust with lance out on accident causes my character to stop moving until the message "sp is full" comes out and i can move again, around 2 seconds.
game issue - the only real problem i have with game balance is the zerker perma cc. it takes the cake for the biggest balance discrepancy I've seen in my video game "career". recently a zerker with enough skill to perma cc me but low ap flagged me, after 30 seconds of perma cc i started watching tv while spamming pots until he stopped. besides being funny as hell it illustrated a horribly broken system. I've been perma ccd to death many times also. im amazed at the ability of the devs or lack thereof to find a balance here, it's pathetic. AFTER TWO CCS WITHIN LESS THAN A SECOND BETWEEN THEM PLAYERS WILL RECEIVE A TWO SECOND CC IMMUNITY. this is a proven game mechanic. that being said, other than that its pretty impressive how balanced the game is imo.
Hey guys, this is my first post on this forum. If the post is in the wrong sub, I ask mods to please move it to the appropriate one (Art & Media)
I do however think that this is the sub to post this, even though this isn't directly about the discussion of the class.
Specifically, I wanted to ask the Valkyrie playerbase in this game to collaborate with me on five or six songs to record and put out there together, just for fun. Having been inspired by the story of Enslar and my love for this class, I want to make a few symphonic/folk metal songs about the class, its position in the world and Calpheon, Elion and Elionism, and of course the story of Enslar the Valkyrie herself.
I have some specific ideas and song names written down or in Guitar Pro, and I'd love some external input too!
Myself, I'm a guitarist, been playing for almost 6 years now. Looking to save up for a good half-stack amp and join a band. This is no professional project at all, because I use a Yamaha THR10X as my audio interface and Reaper as my DAW. The guitar I'd like to use for this is an Ibanez ARZIR27. My musical inspirations draws from Tyr, Skyclad, Dragonforce, and Rammstein among others. By far and wide do I not claim to be a great or even good guitarist.
As to the project itself, I reckon I'm going to need a Mezzo - Soprano voice (found), a Bass voice, a bassist, flute, violin and lead guitar (I don't like/can't be bothered learning to play or compose proper metal solos). My time frame for this is fairly extended as we all would like to play the game among other things and I live in Australia, so my availability hours would be very different to EU and NA players. I would say we should be done with everything and ready to release it, if all goes smoothly, after about 7 or 8 months of starting work on it. Once again, the pressure is not on at all as this is a a just for fun project.
Thank you very much for spending time to read this OP, if mods deem this sub to be inappropriate please move this thread
P.S. I'm a d00d
Post on [Question] Valkyrie Shield PVE Only in GeneralBy remymaes, postedHello,
My Valkyrie is now level 56. And now it's time to continue gearing up. In case you haven't seen it yet, @Azveki made a great post about gearing to 200 ap. Link: http://forum.blackdesertonline.com/index.php?/topic/127071-detailed-0-to-200-ap-gearing-guide/. This alone solved a lot of my questions.
Now: atm I'm grinding Sausans for about 6 to 10 million silver an hour. Solo. I'm not planning on swapping to Pirates any time soon. Why you might ask? Well, I don't have a ship, I don't have the CP to rent a house and container, I got less then 600 LT... But the main reason, I can do Sausans without competition from others. In other words: I'm not planning on switching from Sausans any time soon. So I'd like to optimize my gear to kill them even faster. And there I got a few questions about.
Currently I have 120/131/206. As i said I play Valkyrie. And one of my questions is which shield should I use farming Sausans. Currently I'm using a Ultimate Vangertz +15. Should I buy an Ultimate Axion (+15, PRI, DUO?). Ultimate Axion +15 gives atleast 5 AP more then my current Vangertz at the cost of 7 accuracy. Since Sausans is around a level 54-56 area I thought I wouldn't miss a lot of attacks and therefore lose most of the accuracy bonus and bonus AP might be more useful. I will lose 15 DP if I swap them but survivability ain't a problem.
I know.. Get Nouver nub, get Kutum nub.. Those things cost around 90-100 million silver non enchanted...
Next question. Earrings. A lot of guides are the same, Blue Whale Moral Earring is the way to go. Should I get these in the long run? I could keep my earrings and when I'm ready to go to pirates or Valencia I could make the change. What should I do?
2 general question though. Axion shield (+15) has an AP ratio of 8~21. What's up with the 13 AP gap between them? Why not a set value like 15~17? Is there anything useful or good about such big gap?
And I currently have an Ultimate Yuria +15 Longsword. I wanted to get it to Duo to like my Awakened weapon. But when I got 17 fs I was lucky enough to get a +14 Grunil piece. No big deal. It's just I wanted to get 20 fs on Ultimate Grunil +14 and at 8 fs boom, +15.. So now I don't have anything to get fs on. What do you guys use to get failstacks on? And for ultimate weapon, at how many fs would I start trying to get PRI and DUO? I thought 18 and 22 would be a good start..
Thanks in advance!
Post on [help] Gearing and Farming in ValkyrieBy remymaes, postedHello everyone,
Today I finally got my Valkyrie to level 56. And now I'm a bit stuck on what I should upgrade/change next. I included a picture with my current gear. Atm I'm saving for Ultimate Grunil Armor +15 or PRI. But those are either 22 or 33 million on average. So I thought maybe it would be best to start for some more AP instead of DP. By tomorrow I'll have +- 25 million silver thanks to log-in bonus. If I sell my current chest I can afford a PRI one. But something tells me that's not the best thing I could do atm..
My current stats are: 109/104/189. And I have no idea where to start grinding... I got 2 pets: a level 7 Hawk and a level 6 penguin. I tried farming sausans (even in group) but hardly 1.5 million silver tops. That includes legit 1 grunil piece with 5 luck... I really hope there are better places to farm for my stats. It's just I got no clue where to begin.
Any help/advice is appreciated.
Post on Valk Guide in ValkyrieBy AnimalWalker, postedEveryone plays Valkyrie different. I am lv 57 so this works for me. Lower lv and higher lv this all can and will chance.
This is my talent build. http://bddatabase.net/us/skillcalc/24563
Celestial Spear is the most important skill to have. I stance switch a lot right now. I have both a kzarka and ultimate piece of purification lancia at plus 18. and I still do more damage in long sword mode. I learned to use Celestial Spear as my pillar for going between modes. I try to be about 7-8 sec in long sword and 7-8 in lance mode. this seems to be the best dps for me.
This is bascially my pve rotation.
Celestial Spear (S+E) (Ultimate) >Sword Of Judgment (S+RMB) . Will one shot almost anything. Best combo we have.
Rigtheous Charge (W+F) > Sword Of Judgment (S+RMB)
Sharp Light (Shift+LMB) > Sword Of Judgment (S+RMB) *Note that Sharp Light (Shift+LMB) needs to be off cd for this to work.
If Celestial Spear (S+E) is still on cd, just spam 3 Sword Of Judgment as a filler or If you have Shield throw (S+Q) use as filler.
If not, Celestial Spear (S+E) then Sanctitas de Enslar (F) Or Promptness (Space) if Sanctitas de Enslar (F) is on cd.
Wave of Light (S+F) then Purificatione (Shift+LMB) or Hastiludium(W+F) or Sanctitas de Enslar (F) to skill cancel because Wave of Light (S+F) will just have you a sitting duck for 3 sec.
Once Sanctitas de Enslar (F) , Hastiludium(W+F) , Wave of Light (S+F) is on cd.
Blitz Stab (W+RMB)
Then I spam Sacrum Ferit (RMB) four times as filler. I do four because I have .
By time Celestial Spear (S+E) (Ultimate) is off cd, repeat, however, use Celestial Spear (S+E) as a hotbar button so you can switch to long sword mode faster.
Your 2 best combos are
Celestial Spear (S+E) (Ultimate) >Sword Of Judgment (S+RMB)
Celestial Spear (S+E) then Sanctitas de Enslar (F)
I can one shot almost anything with one of theses combos.
I used to use Shield throw (S+Q) but i just have no many spells to manager now. It is still a good spell to have, but it is still low priority to other big hitting spells.
I know use Purificatione (Shift+LMB) only to skill cancel Wave of Light (S+F) or try to heal a party member, the damage is shit on it.
Castigatio and Verdict: Lancia Lustitiae just suck on damage for me right now. When I am 58-60 things could change.
I don't know if other valkyries have to stance change as much as me. but my goal is to kill faster and this is how I kill the fastest. Note This is all for pve mob grinding. Pvp is a different ball park.
A lot of guides say
Shield throw (S+Q) > Celestial Spear (S+E) > Shield throw (S+Q) is a great combo, but I know for a fact that it is not working the way most people think. You are able to cast Celestial Spear (S+E) right after Shield throw (S+Q) with no delay, but doing this, you cancel the Shield throw (S+Q) all together, it will do no damage and not stun. But put the spell on cd. Celestial Spear (S+E) > Shield throw (S+Q) is the same damage as Shield throw (S+Q) > Celestial Spear (S+E) > Shield throw (S+Q) .
Lucky, the skill cancel for Wave of Light (S+F) works the way people think skill cancelling works.
Another trick a lot of valk dont know is when you use Sword Of Judgment (S+RMB) final attack ultimate you get 2 hits with it so you have to hold S+RMB or just RMB for a half sec longer and with these two attacks, you can use one on a mob in front of you and if it dies and there is a mob behind you, you can quickly 180 and hit the other guy with the 2nd hit.
Celestial Spear (S+E) (Ultimate)
Sword Of Judgment (S+RMB)
Rigtheous Charge (W+F)
Sanctitas de Enslar (F)
For 57, I say these are the best skills for the skill addons.
At 58 I will do my next skillon with Hastiludium(W+F)
Noticing after fighting classes with multiple hits (in this case was a musa using spin 2 win), when I try to use skills that swap me over from lancia to sword and shield the swap goes through but then I get stuck in sword and shield without being able to use any skills.
Post on Stop valkyrie in ValkyrieBy ClassForPvP, postedForgive me, my bad English
I'm lvl 58 with boss + kzarka and dandelion full tri equipment and all skills are too slow for pvp.
If you are fighting against: wizard, sorcerer, ninja, giant, archer with all these classes the valkyrie is crap.
Kakao delete this class as it is useless
Post on Valkyrie Awakening Skill Bug in In-Game BugsBy Bear, postedUPDATE: The bug has been fixed with the December 28th patch and now it applies floating on the third hit. Yay.
Valkyrie's awakening skill, Sacrum Ferit's last hit does not apply Floating effect as shown in the small video and in the description. The only time floating works is when the skill Flow: Lucem Fluxem is used. I've reset the skills so Flow:LF isn't leveled to make sure it wasn't the cause of the bug and sure enough, still no floating effect.
Anyone with a Valkyrie can reproduce the bug by holding RMB with awakening weapon wielded and see that mobs aren't launched into the air after last hit.
After messing with my movement speed to get it to a point i'm comfortable with on my sorceress i'm a bit upset by the idea of warriors with giant greatswords and shields, valkyries with huge lances and shields, and humongous zerkers who appear to weigh upwards of 300-400 lbs with two axes and a cannon equipped all being able to outrun me as a sorc with an amulet that appears to basically weigh nothing and a scythe that looks about as heavy as the musas polearm.
I would like to see either a way to string teleports together more quickly after your flip, or a significant increase in the distance you're teleporting. The fact that my sorc is apparently fast enough to blink through space without being seen but can't outrun a warrior with his dash spam is just a bit unbalanced, at least in my opinion.
Tell me what you guys think.

|Brighton Platform 2 Length Problem 11/05/2016 at 19:21 #82275
133 posts
Hi all!
As some of you know, I am currently making a timetable for Brighton and when I was testing it out, I noticed that 5H60-1 (a 4 car class 377 booked to join another 4 car class 377 at Brighton) didn't fit into the buffer stop end of platform 2. As a result of this, 5H60-2 (the now 8 car train) couldn't go into Lovers Walk Depot via the WCR like it was booked to.
I have seen 8 car trains in platform 2 in real life and their tail ends were well clear of the points leading to the depot and the oddest thing is the fact that an 8 car class 377 entering from the depot (WCR) can fit into platform 2 without the tail end hanging over the points.
Does anyone know what is happening here. Is it a sim bug or is the 4 car train that 5H60 is booked to join not pulling right up to the buffers?
Hope someone can help.

Consulting firm picked to hunt for Pittsburgh schools chief lacks history
The firm that was hired by the board of the Pittsburgh Public Schools to lead the search for a new leader for the district has no documented history that it ever completed a superintendent search.
In fact, the only superintendent search that Perkins Consulting Group was involved in was for a small school district in New York state, where the board ultimately decided to promote its deputy superintendent, according to documents provided to the district by the consulting firm's head, Brian Perkins.
His firm was hired last month by the Pittsburgh board in a 5-4 vote at a rate not to exceed $100,000. Board directors Thomas Sumpter, Regina Holley, Carolyn Klug, Terry Kennedy and Sylvia Wilson approved the measure.
Board member Cynthia Falls voted no and outgoing directors Mark Brentley, Sherry Hazuda and Bill Isler abstained.
Ms. Holley said she and Mr. Sumpter met Mr. Perkins at a conference for the Council of Urban Boards of Education and recommended his consulting firm to the board when then-superintendent Linda Lane announced plans to retire from the district in September. Ms. Holley and Mr. Perkins said they were "impressed with his credentials."
Mr. Sumpter said he did not contact any of Mr. Perkins' references and did not know if any other board members did so.
"I don't think that was carried out by any specific person," he said. "I guess it comes down to Dr. Perkins' unique skill set that he brings and us being satisfied with that."
The board also did not distribute a request for proposals for other potential candidates, raising questions among some community members and stakeholders about the amount of input and participation the public will have in the hiring decision.
Last month, the A+ Schools advocacy group held a community session about the superintendent search process and released a statement afterward with three key points: that the board will have a difficult job in selecting a new superintendent; that stakeholder input is essential; and that the process matters.
After the hiring of Perkins Consulting Group, A+ spokesman James Fogarty said the organization had some concerns about the move.
"We are glad to see they are moving ahead with the process, but we have questions," Mr. Fogarty said. "We're not sure how Mr. Perkins was selected and whether other firms were considered."
Mr. Perkins could not be reached for comment.
According to his biographical material, he is director of the Urban Education Leadership Program at Columbia University's Teachers College in New York City, has served two terms as national chair for the Council of Urban Boards of Education. He was also a visiting professor at the University of Pretoria in South Africa for more than a decade.
His biography touts consulting stints in school districts around the world, including Brazil, Israel and China. Included in a list of references submitted to the board were four school districts for which Mr. Perkins has conducted services over the years, including board professional development and curriculum redesign. However, Mr. Perkins did not complete a superintendent's search for any of those districts.
Denise Baines, former board president of the Wyandanch Union Free School District, a small suburban New York City district on Long Island, said Mr. Perkins assisted the board with one superintendent's search when the board "changed its mind" and decided instead to hire its deputy superintendent, Pless M. Dickerson. Much of Mr. Perkins' other work with the board involved faculty training, revamping the district's outdated curriculum and "mentoring" the newly appointed superintendent, she said.
Mr. Dickerson, who was also listed as a reference and currently serves as board president for the Westbury Union Free School District, described Mr. Perkins as an educational consultant who is "extremely resourceful" with a "valuable knowledge base." His school district has about 5,200 students, the majority of whom are Hispanic.
The largest student body on the list of references had 14,000 students across two districts governed by the U.S. Virgin Islands Board of Education.
Josie Smith-Wright, who is a member and former board president of the Gonzales Independent School District, said Mr. Perkins mostly conducted workshops and training sessions for the Texas Caucus of Black School Board Members, of which she is a member.
Mr. Isler, the former board president of Pittsburgh Public, served on the board for 16 years. He said it is "critical" for search firms to have extensive experience conducting a national superintendent search for large urban school districts.
"You have to get someone to do the search who you've properly vetted, someone who everyone knows, trusts and agrees upon," he said. "You've also got to be transparent, and be upfront and honest with the community about what you're doing, who you're choosing and why."
Mr. Sumpter said Mr. Perkins' contract has not yet been finalized.
"We're developing a process and intend for that to be the best we can come up with because it's important to do what's best for our children," Mr. Sumpter said.

text: shlorpaderp 0 Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 I can't find an answer for this problem and it's starting to seriously annoy me. Any PNG image I link to my html is noticeably darker/sharper/more contrasted than its source. Images attached to post, context and code below, too. I created a BLANK html page and added one single image to test it out. The images with cats differ in that the HTML version (bottom) is clearly sharper (if you look closer at the fur) compared to its source file, while the png image of a green diamond on a dark grey background that I myself made is much lighter in the source, compared to its browser child - look at the black dot I painted for comparison, one is pretty visible, while the one on the right is practically camouflaged in its own background. Here are the lines I used for the diamond, the same for the cat (just a different source: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>Test</title> </head> <body> <img src="images/diamond.png" class="diamond"> </body> </html> This is important to me, because my website is primarily image-driven, and if all the images are darker than my actual products, it might cause me trouble.

Today's project at 37,425 miles, changing the rear differential fluid.
Pretty straightforward job. Just two bolts, one on top to fill, I did that one first in case I had trouble undoing it, so that the fluid would remain in the differential, and then the bottom to drain the fluid. People recommended doing it this way in case the top bolt is too stubborn so I could drive to a mechanic to get it loosened up, but I had no such problems. The car is so new that it took no effort to loosen them.
The most important part of the project was to jack the car high enough for me to fit under it.
And now I'm set for another 30,000 miles.

Australia's Magic Millions Launches World First Female Only Incentive Thoroughbred Race
08 Jan, 2012, 06:22 GMT
QUEENSLAND, Australia, January 8, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Magic Millions today officially launched a $500,000 incentive for women to own thoroughbred horses, with the ambition to drive interest about employment opportunities and raising awareness about women's involvement in the horse racing industry.
The initiative was launched by two of Australia's most prominent women in business, Katie Page and Gai Waterhouse, who addressed a 200 strong crowd of influential women at the Magic Millions Sales Complex on the Gold Coast, Queensland.
Page said, "Women still earn 17 per cent less than men in Australia for the same job. We have a long way to go and I hope the half-million helps.
"I promise you that participation of women in racing will be different from today. This is an exciting sport and it should be 50 per cent women and 50 per cent men. Nothing under that is acceptable."
The Magic Millions Racing Women scheme was announced last November by Katie Page and husband Gerry Harvey.
Gerry Harvey commented about the lucrative prize money, "When Katie first told me about the half-million prize pool, I told her it was like plundering the store room and giving it to a bunch of skirts, but I know it will mean real growth for the industry in the end".
Gai Waterhouse, Australia's leading female trainer said, "Katie, by this concept, has opened the door for all women and their friends to get involved with myself and the others, but make sure you have a lady trainer please!"
The Magic Millions 2YO Classic in 2013 will have a Magic Millions Racing Women incentive bonus of $500,000, which will be distributed between the top four all-female owned or leased horses, in finishing order. That's on top of the $2 million in prize money already on offer for the Classic.
Helen Page, a leading Queensland trainer said, "something that Queensland really needs is this boost from Gerry and Katie with the extra money and the extra incentive because Queensland is a little stagnant at the moment - we need a lift right now".

Regal has always had a reputation for building quality, comfortable and smooth riding boats. This very clean, low hour and well maintained version is no exception. Great entertaining and family fun will fill the spacious cockpit equipped with wet bar and lower able-removable rear bench seat and double wide helm and rear facing bench make for plenty of room for the whole gang.
Engine is one year old and has only 70 hours, total hours on this boat is 700 hours.
With an 8-foot, 6-inch beam and weighing under 7,000 pounds, the trailerable 2665 allows you to portage to places unknown once again. The aft cockpit features a pair of facing bench seats, which can easily handle a party of six. With the release of a few pins, the seating transitions into a two-person sun lounge for those looking to take it a little slower. Forward you'll find a double helm seat, with the captain and first mate having their own flip-up bolsters. The ergonomic helm is functional with all the ship's systems within easy reach, and the backlit and clearly labeled rocker switches keep drivers in control. Molded-in steps provide safe accessibility to the foredeck should you have to dock in unexpected inclement weather.It is hard to imagine that a trailerable cruiser can comfortably accommodate a family of four for more than a day or two; but the cabin of the 2665 defies this notion. For starters, the aft cabin's berth is an incredible 80 x 76 inches -- that's 16 inches wider than a standard queen. The V-berth seating arrangement converts quickly to a berth but also provides room for storage beneath the seating -- leaving the cabin uncluttered while providing room for supplies. Weeklong crusaders will thoroughly enjoy the spacious stand-up head with VacuFlush toilet. Add in a large, fully-equipped galley with generous countertop space and storage, and this 26 is ready to go anywhere for any length of time. Her sea keeping ability is second to none, thanks to Regal's OceanTrac hull design. With a sharp angle of entry, it doesn't matter whether you're quartering the waves or taking them head on; the 2665 will land soft and dry. And with the transom's 20 degree deadrise angle carried all the way forward to amidships, she tracks straight and true in sloppy conditions as well.

Partnership practice as collaborative knowledge work: Overcoming common dilemmas through an augmented view of professional expertise

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to shed new light on how partnership practices that build resilience in families work. Two broad questions are explored: first, what are the forms of expertise required in practices that effectively build resilience through partnership; and second, how can some of the challenges practitioners experience when working in partnership be addressed Design/methodology/approach - A theoretical approach is taken, framing partnership as collaborative knowledge work between practitioners and clients. Concepts of relational expertise, common knowledge and relational agency are explored as means to understand the forms of expertise involved in partnership. An empirical example is provided from practices guided by The Family Partnership Model, an approach that has been widely implemented. Findings - These concepts help to address three key challenges experienced by practitioners: client readiness for change, maintaining focus and purpose and using specialist expertise in partnership. This approach elucidates features of partnership practice that distinguish it from expert-led models, while highlighting diverse forms of expertise in play. Originality/value - The framework presented in this paper is distinctive and can be used to identify how practitioners can avoid common dilemmas, even in challenging circumstances with vulnerable families where practitioner-client relationships may be perceived as fragile. It counters the idea that partnership work dilutes professional expertise. Instead, an enriched and augmented view of professional expertise is presented.

More calls for investigation into the letter that has shocked the nation.
- Senior lawyer Zainur Zakaria says the act constitutes an offence under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act
- Former diplomat Dennis Ignatius says the letter hints at possible plans for emergency rule in the event Barisan Nasional lost GE14
- DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang demands that Najib explain to Parliament about the letter
A senior lawyer has urged police to investigate a letter purportedly written by the top intelligence officer in former prime minister Najib Razak's administration which sought the support of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to keep him in power.
Zainur Zakaria said the request, made days before the May 9 general election, was an attempt to obtain the assistance of a foreign intelligence agency and government to interfere in Malaysia's democratic election process.
"This act constitutes an offence under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma). It seeks to procure an election result favourable to Najib and Barisan Nasional (BN) by unlawful means and also affects the security of Malaysia," he told FMT.
The letter was allegedly written on behalf of the Malaysian External Intelligence Organization (MEIO) and signed by Hasanah Ab Hamid, who also leads a unit under the Research Division of the Prime Minister's Department.
Hasanah, whose present whereabouts are unknown, is said to have penned the three-page letter to CIA director Gina Haspel, stating that Najib was a US ally with whom Washington could work, compared to Dr Mahathir Mohamad who was seen as "anti-West (and) anti-Semite".
Zainur, who is also a former Malaysian Bar president, said paragraphs 11, 12, 13 and especially paragraph 14 of the letter clearly indicated a request for support from the CIA to help BN win GE14.
"The police themselves can lodge a report to begin investigations. Any member of the public can also do so," he said.
Zainur said in the past, it was BN who accused the opposition of trying to obtain support from foreign agencies to bring down the democratically elected government.
"This letter appears to indicate that it is Najib and BN who sought foreign interference, not the opposition," he said.
Zainur also said Najib had not denied the existence of the letter but merely stated that he was not aware of it.
"Surely, as prime minister, it is ridiculous for him not to be aware. It concerns a very serious and important issue that affects the democratic process and national security of the nation."
Meanwhile, a former ambassador claimed the letter hints at plans for an "extrajudicial power grab" in the aftermath of GE14.
"I find it very strange, even bizarre, that our intelligence agency, a government department, would send such a letter to their US counterpart," Dennis Ignatius told FMT.
"My sense is that there is perhaps more than meets the eye here."
The former high commissioner to Canada noted that the letter didn't ask for US support to win the election.
Rather, it appeared to seek their understanding and support in the period immediately following the election, he said.
Dennis alleged this suggested that in the final days of campaigning, Najib was anticipating losing the election and contemplating using the National Security Council Act to stay in power.
He said the letter attempted to convince the US that such a move would serve Washington's interests well, given Dr Mahathir's previous anti-Western bias, and that Najib might be more mindful of the US' interests in relation to China if it endorsed whatever actions Najib might take.
"It represents, in my view, nothing less than a shocking and shameful appeal to the US to side with Najib against Mahathir in the event of an electoral impasse or a close call.
"It follows a pattern set by other regimes on the verge of losing power.
"Though Najib himself may or may not have known about the letter, it is an indication of the extent his administration was willing to go to hold on to power."
He added that the letter to the CIA would now lend credence to the speculation that at least some in Najib's camp was making plans for emergency rule in the event BN lost the election.
"While time will tell whether all this is fact or fiction, I believe it warrants a thorough investigation as proposed by the National Patriots Association (Patriot)."
Earlier, Patriot called on the authorities to investigate the letter which it described as "treacherous" and "treasonous".
Patriot president Brig-Gen (Rtd) Mohamed Arshad Raji said the purported letter had discussed internal security matters and foreign policy matters that should not have been shared.
Calls to probe the letter aside, DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang has demanded Najib explain to Parliament.
"Let Najib turn up in Parliament on Monday and justify the despatch of the shocking letter from the Research Division in the Prime Minister's Department to the CIA five days before the 14th general election.
"He should also explain when Parliament had approved the setting up of an intelligence unit in the Prime Minister's Office and the details about the budget and operations of the secret intelligence unit under him," Lim said in a press statement.
Lim said the letter painted Najib as a progressive leader and a staunch supporter of the US while describing Dr Mahathir as "anti-West" should never have been sent by any self-respecting government or official.
"It is just not good enough for Najib to now claim that he, as the Prime Minister at the time did not instruct the Research Division in the Prime Minister's Department to write the letter to the CIA seeking US support for the Barisan Nasional against Pakatan Harapan five days before the May 9 general election," Lim said.
Lim added that MCA's sole parliamentarian, Ayer Hitam MP Wee Ka Siong, had avoided his question in Parliament on whether he was aware of the said letter as Wee was a former minister in the Prime Minister's Department.
In his statement, Lim also called Najib the "worst prime minister in Malaysian history."
