Pakistan's ODI skipper Shahid Afridi said that the Pakistan side is capable of coming up with a good show in the 2011 World Cup despite the spate of controversies and problems surrounding the team.
Afridi told a press conference from his home in Karachi that he is hopeful Pakistan could be one of the top contenders in the World Cup despite not having won a single ODI series since the middle of 2008.
"I back my players and I back this team to come good. We have some very talented players but yes these players have to seize the opportunity that is given to them. The captain and coach can only give them that much confidence the rest is up to them," Afridi said.
Afridi agreed that the recent controversies surrounding Pakistan cricket has had an adverse affect on the national team.
"Obviously there is pressure on the players and these new things that keep cropping up at crucial times also affect the players."
He asked for the media and former players to support the team in the run-up to the World Cup.
"I know everyone wants us to do well whether it is the Cricket Board (PCB) or fans but the team needs support," Afridi said.
Afridi also mentioned that he declined an offer to play for South Australia in order to concentrate on the World Cup.
"I had got an offer to play for South Australia in their Big Bash T20 event before the New Zealand tour but I declined because I am training hard and I want to be ready for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2011," he said.
He mentioned that the sub-continent conditions would help the team during the World Cup. "The conditions in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh are similar so we should do well."
Afridi admitted that another problem affecting the team was its inability to finish off matches.
"I don't know the reason but it is a fact that we have been playing well in recent times. We were in strong positions in Australia, England and now against South Africa but for some reason we are letting the opportunities slip by. We are not displaying good finish abilities which is an area of concern for us," Afridi said.
Our focus is on the World Cup: Afridi

Naughty, bawdy British music hall comedian Frank Randle is the whole show in When You Come Home. The story opens as Randle, decked out in old-codger makeup, relives his glory days in the British Army, a good a cue as any for the title song. The film then segues into an extended flashback to 1908, with the younger Randle causing havoc in a seedy London theater. The distinctive Lancashire humor of Frank Randle, coupled with his doubleand single-entendre quips, invariably resulted in huge box office returns...more

The first tab shows an interactive map. You have the following user controls on it
Map view
The map view is the most important view in where2fly. Here you can visualize launch sites and landings on a map. For certain countries (currently Switzerland only), also the stations of public transport are shown on the map. The symbols have the following meaning
|Launch site
|Mountain railway
|Wire ropeway
Depending on the map scale and filter, more or less places are visualized. Set the scale either in the Map options or spread two fingers on the display to change. The app is configured to never show too many places on a map view. You may change this in the filter menu at Options - Map - Filter.
Clicking on a symbol shows the name and type of symbol. You may then tab at the blue arrow to open the Details where you will find detailed information about the selected place and may access other places nearby.
List view
Switch from the map view to the list view to show all places on the map as an alphabetically sorted list. Places are grouped by category. You'll find the category name at the right side of the list.
Map options
The option menu is faded in by clicking on the symbol at the top left of the map view
- The first knob is positioning the map to your current location. You have to allow GPS location to do so. If you denied this question at the first start up, then go to the Settings app and activate location info for where2fly. Note that the GPS location sensor is switched off after a couple of seconds to preserve battery power.
- Select one of the four map types for displaying either a standard, satellite, hybrid or relief map.
- Select a predefined map scale with one of the buttons on the second row. This will not only change the scale, but also the type of symbols shown.

Google has been constantly updating its search engine algorithms and the results have been catastrophic and market changing with a few notorious updates. With the new search update by Google named 'possum', one thing has become quite clear- the proximity of the user's location as a metric is going to be tapped more and more aggressively. Therefore it is no surprise that those service providers and businesses who have been tapping their location data and metrics more sincerely are being rewarded with better rankings. SEO Vancouver takes a look at what this means for the end users.
Suppose you are looking for a particular service in your area, and a very large corporation provides that service in your area. You could expect to see multiple entries from the same domain in the search results, and it was problematic to say the least for users who had been looking for alternative service providers. However, this has been taken care of post 'Possum' as users can expect to see more and more different service providers who have locations approximate to the user. Hence, the user gets a more comprehensive utility out of his search now, a win win for both the user and Google.
What Google has been trying to do is not something entirely new. This has been existing for a while. However what is new is how aggressively the results are being filtered for the user. If you want to dominate the results in this market, well you need to outperform your competitor by a considerable margin at least. This is going to put pressure on content as well as service providers to do better both with content as well as their offerings, argues the Best SEO company.
What This Means For You
Well, if we were to summarize in a nutshell, the competition is going to increase, and it is going to increase ferociously. The search has been affected in a very subtle, yet very important way. The results are not being presented on the basis of dominance or clustering of providers any more, but rather than the utility for the user. This invariably means that the end user is going to gain the most as the results are more meaningful in respect to his location. The importance to the location of the searcher has become greater than ever before.
Gearing Up For The Changes
If you are a service provider for local searches or if your business depends upon local search engine traffic for business, the first and the foremost step is to check to see how much your search rankings have been affected. Irrespective of the fact on whether you have been affected or not, it is time that you took your location foot print seriously. You should make sure that all the data that can help your customers in making a decision are available to your customers, for example the space for parking. You also need to make sure that you are in good company of a SEO agency which can manage these hassles for you, according to SEO Vancouver.
Search, the way we see and understand it, is ever going to change. Therefore it is very important that we stay in tune with these changes at every step if we want our business to succeed.

On July 29, the DOJ announced that the former president of the Guatemala soccer federation pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy and wire fraud conspiracy charges. The individual was the president of the Guatemala soccer federation from 2009 to 2015. The former president's guilty plea came in response to allegations that he received bribes in exchange for awarding media and marketing rights to a Florida company for the Guatemalan national soccer team's World Cup qualifying games. The bribes, totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars, were transmitted from U.S. bank accounts. As part of the plea, the former president agreed to forfeit $350,000 and could be sentenced to a maximum of 20 years for each count.
The guilty plea came as part of the U.S. government's investigation into corruption in international soccer. 42 individuals and entities have been charged thus far in the investigation, which has been ongoing since May 2015, and the former president is the sixteenth person to plead guilty.

At one time, the idea sounded easy: Have the United States abandon the awkward conventions of inches and pounds that harken to medieval times and adopt the modern metric measurements used by virtually all the world's industrial nations. But old habits die hard. Ten years after President Ford signed into law the Metric Conversion Act of 1975 to help usher America into the metric age, the old English measurements are still the favorite of most people. For many American skeptics, the metric system is a wonderful idea whose time may never come. Although many industries have adopted metric measurements to some extent, even metric's staunchest proponents in the US admit it may be a distant day before the system gains wide public acceptance.
``It's not as far along as a lot of people thought it would be be 10 years ago,'' admits Alan Whelihan of the US Commerce Department's office of metric programs. ``But it's spreading, and a lot more widely than people think.''
Indeed, the US is gradually, if slowly, going metric. While public acceptance of metric measurements has moved along in fits and starts, US industry has quietly changed over to metric measurements. Virtually every automobile part in the US is now fashioned to metric specifications. Alcoholic beverages were first to be packaged in metric-sized containers; soft drinks have since begun to follow. Metric sizes routinely precede English measurements on the containers of many supermarket goods. By one estimat e, 32 percent of the nation's 500 largest industrial corporations market at least one metrically scaled product.
Experts say the biggest factor in the gradual shift has not been US government efforts, which began officially encouraging voluntary changeover to metric measurements with the 1975 act. Instead, the impetus has come from American exporters.
``Companies have to adjust to other countries' standards if they want to sell abroad, and, for most other countries, that means metric,'' says Albert Navas, president of the American National Metric Council, an industry-funded organization set up to encourage the spread of metric measurments.
Indeed, metric measurements are beginning to creep into places where they were once rejected. Florida, for example, has begun posting speed-limit signs on many of its roads that list both miles and kilometers per hour. That, Mr. Navas says, is partly a concession to the large number of Hispanic immigrants arriving from countries where metric measurements predominiate.
But he also takes it as a positive sign that the metric system is gradually winning tacit popular acceptance.
``The metric movement is less militant now than it once was -- people used to feel it was being shoved down their throats,'' Navas says. ``Well, we're not going to try to get football fields measured in meters. They'll always being yards. All we're saying now, is, if it makes sense, use it. If it doesn't, don't.''
Metric advocates say a key to long-term, widespread acceptance of the system is education about metric measurements at the elementary and even preschool level.
Canadians, introduced to the metric system 13 years, have begun voting with their wallets on metric measures.
Earlier this year, a Canadian court ruled that stores could sell in metric or Imperial, as the old Canadian system is known. Store owners around the country are reportedly stampeding back to the old system.

You guys, I finally found it! $12. The clearance rack in the Juniors' section at TJ Maxx. I almost screamed in the dressing room when it fit over my boobs. Now, I'm the proud owner of my very first maxi dress:
Dreams do come true. More than my discovery, I love when I find something new and take it home, only to find out it happens to match a bunch of my favorite things (cue my marigold sweater). Isn't that one of the greatest shopping feelings? Also, I want to marry this weather. It's like Massachusetts has one foot in autumn and one foot in summer. Although I'll always be up for basking in the heat like a reptile, I think this is my favorite time of year. Everything feels new and there's tons of stuff in the upcoming months I'm excited about: apple cider, Halloween decorations, pumpkin pie, waking up in warm blankets on a chilly morning, boots. I'm getting psyched just thinking about it.

The office of the American presidency is a multi-faceted occupation that requires many sorts of management styles. This hub briefly discusses a number of the hats worn by American President Barack Obama through the two terms of his presidency. Principally the article focuses on three broad management types together with transformational-charismatic, cross-cultural, and contingency-situational leadership. The opinion polls allow you to rate the way you assume President Obama has executed in these areas and overall during his eight years in office. Please feel free to participate.
I am impressed with the depth of this text, you've got clearly put some time into it. You are completely right, of course, the housekeeping / cleaning industry is within the midst of an enormous shift toward cleaning for well being as a lot (or more) than for appearance. A number of years ago, everyone switched to microfiber and we've not appeared back since! Most lately, there's been loads of deal with inexperienced cleansing options and how to minimize down airborne particles to manage an infection and different maladies (predominantly bronchial asthma). Can't wait to see the place we go from right here!
I've been inside twice in the mid 80's. The fires had already began happening and one building was already principally destroyed by hearth. It's a shame that such an exquisite place has been left to rot. I never skilled anything even barely paranormal there. Simply unhappiness from the decay. I'd like to explore it once more. I was instructed by a termite technician that there are two basements on prime of one another, however he could have been pulling my leg.
I have a friend who needed to promote New York and Chicago type sizzling dogs. Problem is the native sizzling canine manufactured in Thailand usually are not so tasty as the ones in US. And importing Sabretts or Nathan's model to Thailand will likely be expensive. There is not any manner someone in Thailand would pay for a 90THB sizzling canine, until you promote it in Siam Paragon and Central World where the locals have cash to spend.
A undertaking may be anything from a multi-million dollar bridge or a advertising event comparable to constructing a sandcastle in a constructing! Usually Challenge Management is considered by neophytes as some type of construction mission. If you have ever gone by way of an office software re-group you'll respect the necessity for good undertaking administration! This holds for practically all undertakings!

BioShock Infinite
|BioShock Infinite
|BioShock Infinite logo.
|Irrational Games
|2K Games
|Release Date
[edit] Overview
A third game in the BioShock series was announced on June 5, 2008 by Take-Two Interactive, and is now known not to be a direct sequel/prequel to the original Bioshock games. Bioshock Infinite is the start of a completely new Bioshock series and set to be released in 2012, and does not take place in the city of Rapture. It is now set in a fictional city in the sky; Columbia.
Bioshock Infinite is being developed by Irrational Games, who created the original BioShock.
[edit] Plot
(Full plot yet to be released)
Bioshock Infinite takes place in the floating city in the sky called Columbia in 1912. The main protagonist, Booker DeWitt, whom players control during the game, has been put in the role of finding and protecting a woman named Elizabeth. It is yet to be revealed as to the circumstances of Elizabeth, but she is being chased by a dangerous creature known as a Songbird, which seems to share a resemblance with the Big Daddy of Bioshock and Bioshock 2.
The game takes place in a city called 'Colombia', a city built in the sky, by a man called Zachary Hale Comstock. Among it's residents are the followers of Comstock, the Vox Populi, and workers at Fink Industries. Civil unrest has caused tension between the Vox Populi and Fink Industries, bringing the Vox Populi to strike back against the Industrial Revolution. We find Booker Dewitt, the protagonist of the story, and Elizabeth, a young woman with the incredible ability to summon Tears, gateways to different realities, with an infinite amount of different outcomes. The creation of Vigors, brings with it certain abilities, that can aid the user with new ways to turn the tides of war. With a wide range of weapons, Mechanical enemies and aircraft, Comstock boasts an impressive arsenal that booker must overcome. Booker DeWitt must find a way to fix his past, and save Elizabeth from the clutches of Zachary Hale Comstock.
[edit] Game Development
Bioshock Infinite is being developed by Irrational Games, creators of the original Bioshock. Originally under the working title of Project Icarus. It was later revealed that the developers had been working on the game for nearly two and a half years, using the new technology of Unreal Engine 3, which produces groundbreaking gaming effects.

The Four Wizards
Misc Info
Our Group, Campaign, and DM style
Our group likes to switch off DMing every month, or even every few sessions. This is refreshing for the players and for myself (as the usual DM). The DM's worlds are held together by 'the Veil' concept. The Veil is a great way to allow characters to pass into another DM's Domain without major inconsistencies. The Veil can also account for inexplicable time changes and the loss of party members (whomever is the new DM).
The Four Wizards Campaign/story line was
is (currently) played alternately with The Coming of Kasheek . In 'Coria time' the Coming of Kasheek occurs in a blink of an eye, as the Adroit Sophists pass through the Veil. In real time, the campaigns are intermixed, playing one for a few sessions then switching back to the other. This is accomplished by having the Sophists loose their memory as they pass though back into 'Coria time'. This keeps it interesting for the players, so they don't have to switch off with a higher level and lower level character. The Sophists can gain back their memory (experience points and powers) by completing Skill Challenges in The Four Wizards. This allows them to gain levels, powers, and xp at the same time in both campaign worlds.
Switching DMs is really fun if you can find a way to keep things consistent. I hope you do get a chance to try it out, it's a great way to keep players and DMs on their toes. Each DM does things a little different, It really adds to the diversity of the campaign/adventure/storyline.
The Four Wizards main campaign is run by Super_Bowser.
p. The Coming of Kasheek campaign is DM'd by Riciendo.
A patent pending
joke plan
'The Adroit Sophists Plan' is a fun take on adventuring. I originally came up with the idea as a joke when I noticed that my players tended to split up at almost every scenario. They are great team players and like working together, but they always end up splitting. Everyone gets pulled by different things, which typically leads to the party splitting up to search every crevice and every room. After sharing this with my players, they loved the idea, and decided to "patent" their unique adventuring plan.
Impromptu DM'ing
Our group is new to D&D, with my campaign being their first. My players got interested in DM'ing after we played some "impromptu DM" sessions. Basically I fell behind in my campaign prep, still wanting to play, my group decided that we would work together to DM a one-shot session. We set a timer for 30 minutes, and we just switched off DM when the timer went off (after finishing any encounter). Nobody knew the whole story, each DM just continued where the last left off, made up their story as we went. The best part is when the last DM comes up with a final battle, or resolution that connects back with the first DMs story.
I would recommend trying it with your players if you think they would be up for it. That was the Gateway DM session that got most of my players interested in DMing. Sometimes once a month my group will get together and play an impromptu game. It works great for days when you are missing some of your players, or even your DM.

Employing a dedicated team of certified carpenters and working with a professional network of quality conscious sub-trades and suppliers, Jedan Brothers sets a new benchmark in the construction industry for client service and project management. Jedan Brothers believes in collaborative decision making, proactive communication and transparent project plans to deliver the highest quality craftsmanship on time and on budget. Contact us to see how you can take control of your next residential home or renovation project.
My wife and I hired Jedan Brothers to build an addition and completely remodel our house. I have 13 years experience in the commercial construction market and have dealt with hundreds of contractors. Dan and Jesse are far and away the best I have dealt with. They gave us a very detailed and accurate quote at the outset of the project. Throughout the project they were always available to answer questions and meet on site to go over the smallest details. Both Jedan Brothers Contracting and their sub trades take great pride in producing high quality work. We have no reservations in recommending them to anyone doing a renovation project.
We had Jedan Brothers Contracting renovate our basement from a storage room to a media room and they did an outstanding job. Any friend we have asking for renovation general contractors we highly recommend them. The work was high quality and timely and all of the subcontractors were scheduled effectively and great at their crafts. Small issues inevitably come up and Dan handled these issues smoothly and effectively. We will be using them again for our next renovation.
A key component to an excellent renovator (in addition, to superior workmanship) is to listen and to communicate. Jedan Brothers Contracting, fulfilled all those roles. They kept me up-to-date on the project progress and did not hesitate to touch base with me over the smallest details. Their tradespeople displayed excellent workmanship. My neighbours (I live in a condo) were impressed with their attention to noise, cleanliness and security.
Jedan Brothers Contracting helped us design the right basement for our budget.

You were very responsive and a great communicator about how and when things were going to happen.

Our moms always reminded us to take our vitamins when we were kids. Now that we've left our Flintstones days behind, we're opting for a different kind of vitamin: serum-filled capsules. Designed for daytime use, the Pro: Vitamin C10 capsules contain 10 percent pure absorbic acid, which brightens your skin tone while also boosting collagen production. At night, apply the Pro: Vitamin A15 capsules, which have 0.15 percent pure retinol to undo sun and free radical damage and soften wrinkles. They come in a convenient 28-pack disc, enough to last you for an entire month.
I got a sample of this in a past birchbox,
And absolutely loved this product! I followed directions and used the Vit C 10 in the day and the Vit A 15 before bed. It's true. Your skin looks brighter and refreshed even after one use! I was blown away ;)
If it wasn't so pricey, I know I would use this daily.

Not content to just make records, Cambodian surf-pop bandDengue Fever's
projects have includedmultiple soundtracks
, adocumentary film
, and now, an original score. Rocks Off can think of few other bands whose music perfectly fits the exotic otherworldliness of the 1925 silent version ofThe Lost World
,based on the book
by Aurthur Conan Doyle. Dengue Fever will be at Warehouse Live Saturday night for a one-off performance of their original score for the film. The score was written for the San Francisco International Film Festival this summer, and Houston's screening is presented by theCinema Arts Society.
Bass player Senon Williams talked to Rocks Off about the film, the band's writing process and their relentless touring schedule.

Senon Williams: The score was commissioned by the San Francisco Film Society. The film is by the same production company that did King Kong (ed. note: in 1933). It was a blockbuster. It was totally cutting edge, but for like 1925. It's been remade a couple of times. I heard Up totally ripped it off. You know, I'm not heavily into silent films. When we did the original screening there were a lot of silent film buffs. How was writing the score different from writing an album? SW: When we started working on it it was a lot of work. It was just very challenging. All of our timing had to be perfect with each other. We don't use click tracks or anything like that. We have to watch each other. RO: The first time we heard your music was on NPR, and then a few days later we watched Broken Flowers, and hated the movie but fell in love with the soundtrack. SW: Soundtracks and scoring is something we've been interested in from the beginning. We're not just like, make an album, go on tour. We're pretty much open to anything. RO: You guys have been touring a lot. When we saw you at the Orange Show the crowd was almost half Asian. Is it like that everywhere you play? SW: The last few months are the first time in a couple of years we've had at home. [Singer] Nimol has a lot of friends in Houston - there are always a lot of Cambodians at our shows. RO: Nimol - will she be singing during the movie or is it instrumental only? SW: No, Nimol is coming with us, she'll be there. We're singing a few tracks. RO: And will it be all stuff from the score, or music off your records too? SW: It's all music written for the film. You really won't hear it anywhere else. Dengue Fever's Houston performance will be only the second time they've performed the score live.

TAC Meeting – August 20, 2009
During this meeting, TAC members reported on the presentations to the Chisago City and Wyoming Planning Commissions and the TH 8 Task Force. The purpose of attending these meetings was to present the three roadway concepts that have been prepared and respond to members' comments. The TAC also discussed the box culvert between Big and Little Comfort Lakes. MnDOT indicated the project scope will look at what is needed hydraulically for the roadway project, unless the communities want to expand the opening. The City of Wyoming indicated that the city does not have resources to support an expanded opening.
TAC Meeting – October 15, 2009
The TAC discussed the second tier screening criteria where the objective of this more detailed screening process is to assist in differentiating potential impacts among concepts. Site specific engineering issues were also discussed.
TAC Meeting – June 19, 2012
After several months of preparing environmental technical studies, the TAC was reconvened to discuss the results of these studies and the second tier screening process. The TAC was also apprised that the project falls under an umbrella of uncertainty with regard to funding, so with no foreseeable funding for the proposed project, it unlikely that the project would be advanced through the normal funding process. During this meeting, MnDOT provided an overview of MnDOT's Corridor Investment Management Strategy (CIMS) initiative. It was explained that CIMS would be more economical and feasible shorter term improvements that could be applied to the TH 8 corridor.
Corridor Cities Meeting – July 26, 2012
The intent of this meeting was to obtain input from the corridor cities of Wyoming and Chisago City with regard to how the cities want to bring this study to closure and how the communities want to move forward. It was explained that during the course of this study, there have been policy changes, and these changes affect this corridor because of the uncertainty of funding for the proposed project. The city representatives indicated that they thought it would be desirable to narrow the alternatives down to a preferred alternative; however, they wanted to seek input from their respective city councils regarding the alternatives under consideration.
Chisago City Council Presentation – October 9, 2012
Representatives from MnDOT and their consultant provided a project update to the Chisago City Council. The council had questions related to access control and how the proposed project would affect existing and new businesses.
TAC Meeting – November 30, 2012
The purpose of this meeting was for the corridor cities to report what action their respective councils took in regard to the alternatives under consideration. Both city representatives reported that their councils adopted or selected the four-lane alternative known as "Alternative 5." Therefore, with consensus among the cities of Wyoming and Chisago City and Chisago County, Alternative 5 will be advanced through the environmental document, which will follow the State environmental review process and a public open house will be held during the comment period. It was discussed that the next step for the cities would be to start incorporating the proposed four-lane roadway concept into the cities' comprehensive plans, so that the communities will have a footprint to guide future development. Similarly, Chisago County will list the four-lane roadway concept in its comprehensive plan and transportation plan.

Among the stars there are creatures in the night sky. Creatures like a crab, scorpion, and a mythical pegasus. There is also another being, sometimes it is there and sometimes it is not. The creatures of the night sky never know when she will be around. They think she hides when she is afraid, but why she is afraid… they do not know.
One night they saw their friend. She was big and round and bright. She lit up the sky and made the darkness bright. The friends asked her where she had been.
The crab scuffled, "We have missed you dearly!"
"Where do you go?" the scorpion asked.
Their bright friend replied, "I have to hide. You all do! For the hunter will get you."
The creatures looked at each other in confusion. They had no idea what their friend was talking about. A few nights later, they noticed that another creature was coming their way. He ran toward them and as he got closer he looked more human-like than creature-like. Pegasus was the closest creature to this new human. When the human got close Pegasus felt a rope around her neck pulling her away from her friends and closer to the new human. Pegasus was afraid and confused.
"Help! I do not know this new being. I am scared. I think he's got me!" she cried to her friends. Scorpion and crab were there, but pegasus did not see her bright and round friend. Crab and Scorpion tried to help Pegasus, but they were too far away. The new human got to her first.
"A pegasus?!" the new form exclaimed.
"Get off of me and let me go!" Pegasus screeched.
"I cannot do that, for I am a hunter!" cried the human, "and my name is Orion and you have been caught."
Orion was a huge human figure and was big enough to carry Pegasus away before Crab and Scorpion could help save her.
A few nights later their big bright friend returned. Crab and Scorpion told their friend what happened to Pegasus. Their friend was saddened by the news and said, "I told you all to hide. I told you the hunter would come. You two better hide next time."
"NO," cried Crab and Scorpion, "We have to do something to get Pegasus back!"
"You need to hide. Pegasus is gone. Worry about yourself," said the bright round friend annoyed.
The next few days the bright round friend began to disappear and hide. Crab and Scorpion knew this meant the hunter was coming back and they would be ready to get Pegasus back.
They saw the hunter approaching. As Orion came closer they did not see Pegasus, but they stood their ground. When Orion was close to them Scorpion said, "Where is our friend, Pegasus?"
Orion laughed, "You will never see her again."
Disheartened, Crab and Scorpion looked at each other, "ATTACK!" they both screamed. They leapt toward the hunter. All three beings danced in the night sky. They scratched and squabbled around the other stars. And when the clouds settled, Orion had them both in a bag.
Orion let out a deep belly laugh, "You think you can defeat me?! I am the mightiest of hunters. You were way beyond your lightyears trying to battle The Great Orion."
Crab and Scorpion both let out a sigh and stopped struggling in the bag. They accepted their defeat in the hopes of finding their friend, Pegasus.
A few days later the bright round being of the sky came back to find that all her friends had gone. She could only guess what had happened to them because she knew they did not like her warning.
When you look up into the night sky, sometimes you will see her and sometimes you won't. When she is there she is bright and beautiful. When she is gone the sky is full of darkness as the hunter passes over the night sky. If you see her say hello and tell her to stay safe and hidden from The Great Hunter, Orion.

Saturday 19th March saw the lovely Frances Black playing to a very excited crowd at the Nenagh Arts Centre. It's not Frances' first time performing in Nenagh but her first time here with us at the Arts Centre.
The crowd were warmed up by Frances' daughter Aoife Scott fresh from her appearance on last Friday nights 'Late Late Show'. The apple definitely doesn't fall far from the tree and Aoife treated us to some gorgeous songs from her debut album 'Carry The Day'.
After a short interval it was time for Frances and her band to hit the stage. Frances accompanied by James Blennerhassett, Colm McClean and her son Eoghan Scott got a good old Nenagh welcome as the crowd cheered and clapped. The theatre was filled with a buzz of excitement .
After her first song Frances informed the audience that it had become a tradition that towards the end of the show she would invite someone to come up on stage and sing with her. You could feel the audience hold their breath as she piled on the pressure by saying that no county, so far, had failed to take her up on the challenge. Would Tipperary be the first?
The show was a mix of Frances' well known hits, All the Lies, Wall Of Tears, Once You Said You Loved Me and Everybody Loves A Lover to name a few, along with some fantastic covers including Too Late by Carole King and the beautiful Rise by Gabrielle. There was something to suit everyone's taste and encouraged by Frances the audience joined in and sang along.
Between songs Frances talked about how certain songs had a special significance for her and also shared tales about her family and childhood and she regularly had the audience in stitches with her sense of humour.
The evening went by so quickly and before we knew it we got to the part of the show where a brave audience member was invited to join Frances for a duet. The song to be sung was the very popular 'When You Say Nothing At All' and it really looked like no one was going to take her up on the challenge until Caroline from Portroe plucked up the courage to head up on stage. Encouraged and cheered on by the crowd Caroline and Frances performed a fantastic duet.
All to soon Frances was saying goodbye but the crowd wanted more and she returned for an encore and performed an a capella version of 'Legal Illegal'.
Aoife then returned to join Frances and they rounded off the evening with an emotional version of the beautiful 'Sonny'.
After the show the crowd got a chance to meet and greet and have a chat with Frances and Aoife. The perfect end to a perfect night of great entertainment.

Although Microsoft pulled back the curtains just slightly last week by making the Creators Update available to early adopters, today is the official release day as it is starting to hit Windows Update in what Microsoft describes as a steady roll-out that will take several months.
We have already posted our Creators Update review and provided detailed how-to's for manually installing the update using Microsoft's Media Creation Tool (MCT) or the Windows 10 Update Assistant. Plus, with the upgrade now hitting Windows Update, you can just sit tight until it shows up on Windows Update. That availability will begin with new hardware and work its way out from there with Microsoft closely monitoring for any issues that might come up during the process.
Of course, releasing a major feature update for Windows 10 does not mean it is done. In reality this is just beginning of its journey in the Windows as a Service (WaaS) world and today the Creators Update is also getting its first cumulative update, KB4015583, that will bump it to Windows 10 Version 1703 (OS Build 15063.138).
In fact, all publicly available versions of Windows 10 including the Initial Release, Version 1511, and Version 1607 received cumulative updates to address security, bugs, and performance issues. That my friends is WaaS in action.
See all of our Windows 10 Creators Update Coverage
Either way, along with today marking the official availability of this third major feature update for Windows 10, Microsoft has also unleashed their various blogs to start pushing out the official commentary for the upgrade.
Let's take a look at what is available from Microsoft relating to the PC version of the Creators Update:
How to get the Windows 10 Creators Update
Microsoft's John Cable, the Director of Program Management for Windows Servicing and Delivery, makes it official and recommends users wait for the Creators Update to be delivered via Windows Update. However, the manual download options are still there for enthusiasts and early adopters.
What's new in the Windows 10 Creators Update
This blog post from the Windows Blog Editor-in-Chief Molly Ruiz-Hopper lays out the key feature updates for Creators Update. There is an overview video from the This Week on Windows team plus additional details and videos for other key features and enhancements.
What's new in Microsoft Edge in the Windows 10 Creators Update
Kyle Pflug, the Senior Program Manager on the Microsoft Edge team, tweeted that he had written a couple thousand words relating to the updates in Microsoft Edge that are part of the Creators Update and he was not exaggerating. Here you can see all the upgrades that Microsoft Edge has received today.
This page is a bookmark for me as I reference it on a regular basis to understand what updates have been released across the various versions of Windows 10 on PCs. Today, it now reflects the latest cumulative updates for each edition of Windows 10 on desktops including today's Creators Update release.
Today's release of the Creators Update also introduces a new accessibility enhancement that allows braille to be used in this feature update. It is currently in beta and users can give direct feedback to Microsoft about how it works and is implemented.
Note: For those of you looking for the Windows 10 Mobile version of the Creators Update, Microsoft previously announced that update would begin rolling out on the 25th of April.
Although the release of the Creators Update marks the end of an eight month development cycle that resulted in nearly 50 Redstone 2 developer builds being released to Windows Insiders it does not mean the development of Windows 10 stops here.
Last Friday Microsoft released the first development branch build of the Windows 10 Redstone 3 update, Build 16170, to Windows Insiders in the Fast Ring. That officially begins the public testing of the fourth major update to Windows 10 which is expected to be released this fall. You can track this and future testing builds using our Windows 10 (Redstone 3) Build Tracker for PCs.
But, wait...there's probably more so be sure to follow me on Twitter and Google+.

Dreamlike Bridal Inspirations
The last few hours before the wedding change a life. After going straight ahead for longer times you come to a crossing. A new path is waiting to lead you, and you don´t have to follow it by yourself.
Yet there are moments where you want to be alone, to abandon thoughts, to fade out sorrows. That´s why this bride came to this lonely beach and to preserve her freedom. But the wind blows away her worries, leaving her hopefully and strong behind.
The sun goes down, soon they get started. She enjoys the view, counts the minutes. Feels nature underneath her feet, breathes deeply in and out. One more time she looks onto the water, turns around and follows her way. Now she feels certain: Yes, she does.
It is hard to believe that these wonderful pictures were shot at the admired Neusiedler See. Fine gravel and craggy rocks, dead water despite a light breeze, abandoned jetties and an imposing lighthouse – the beach of Podersdorf seems to be the perfect backdrop for dreamlike bridal shootings like this!
The great filmphotographer Theresa Wey knew about this potential and got inspired to this adorable shooting. Here she shares the most beautiful pictures of the day with us.

HIE Cuts Back On Excess Imaging, But Savings Aren't Huge
Anne Zieger is veteran healthcare consultant and analyst with 20 years of industry experience. Zieger formerly served as editor-in-chief of FierceHealthcare.com and her commentaries have appeared in dozens of international business publications, including Forbes, Business Week and Information Week. She has also contributed content to hundreds of healthcare and health IT organizations, including several Fortune 500 companies. Contact her at @ziegerhealth on Twitter or visit her site at Zieger Healthcare.
For years now, we've been told that HIEs would save money and reduce redundant testing by hospitals and doctors. Until recently, such has mostly been the stuff of anecdote rather than hard results. But a new study comparing hospitals on an HIE with those that were not seems to offer some of the hard evidence we've been waiting for (though the cost savings it finds aren't spectacular overall).
According to a piece in Healthcare IT News, a new study has come out which demonstrates a link between HIE participation and the level of imaging performed in hospital emergency departments.
The study, which was done by Mathematica Policy and the University of Michigan, found that when hospitals were joined in an HIE, the number of redundant CT scans, x-rays and ultrasounds fell meaningfully, generating savings in the millions of dollars.
To conduct the study, Mathematica and the U of Michigan compared the level of repeat CT scans, chest x-rays and ultrasounds for two groups. One group consisted of 37 EDs connected to an HIE; the other group was 410 EDs not connected to an HIE. Researchers collected data on the two groups, which were based in California and Florida, between 2007 and 2010, using the state emergency database and HIMSS Analytics listing of hospital HIE participation.
The researchers found that hospital EDs participating in an HIE reduced imaging across all the modalities compared with hospitals not participating in an HIE. For example, EDs using an HIE worth 13 percent less likely to repeat chest x-rays, and 9 percent less likely to repeat ultrasounds.
Ultimately, the study concluded that if all of the hospital EDs in California in Florida were participating in HIEs, the two states could save about $3 million annually by avoiding repeat imaging. This is just fine, but this translates to $3 million in lost revenue for those hospitals. Once you split up $3 million across that many hospitals, you don't end up with an impressive amount per hospital, but it's still a cut to revenues. A cut in revenue isn't a strong motivator to implement an HIE even if it does help to lower healthcare costs.
This is why it's a real challenge to get many hospitals on an HIE. When you throw in the technical issues involved in HIE membership, it could be quite some time before the majority of hospitals jump on board without more external incentives.

Around 6 a.m., the fire was extinguished, and smoke poured from the windows. At that point, several dozen firefighters entered the two-story building containing several small businesses to assess damage and check for possible victims. One firefighter suffered a minor leg injury.
The flames started raging around 2 a.m. at the 47th Street Marketplace.The businesses destroyed include restaurants, like the popular Blue 47, an art gallery, health care center, the Jamaican Consulate and the Spoken Word Cafe, owned by former alderman Dorothy Tillman's daughter. In all, at least eight businesses were heavily damaged.
Jimalita Tillman says her cafe and other businesses are well known in the community, visited by the late Bernie Mac and President Barack Obama. She says she will rebuild.
"In ten years, we have been here, first out of college. This is my first business. This is what I have done. It really hurts. It is really sad. The poetry community is very big here. Bernie Mac performed there," said Jimalita Tillman. "We have to continue though. We have to continue in this neighborhood."
"You had a lot of young African Americans invested there, and also the consulate of Jamaica. I'm hoping they rebuild," said Dorothy Tillman.
Lloyd Hyde runs the Jamaican Consulate, which is now gutted.
"Sad, there's a lot of needs for the people who come to see us," he said. "There are people in need here. I just want to continue to serve them."
Fire officials say no one was inside. And despite the damage, they say there is a chance for many businesses to re-emerge.
"It appears it had been burning for a significant period of time before the first fire companies arrived. So it had a good foothold," said Michael Callahan, deputy fire commissioner, Chicago Fire Dept.
Firefighters do not yet know what caused the fire.

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- Ladies, it time to celebrate and toss those blow dryers in the drawer, Drybar has arrived in White Plains to save the hairstyles of women across the area.
For those not in the know, Drybar is a uber popular salon blowing up across the nation where the employees do only one thing -- offer fabulous blow-outs.
The newest location at 1 North Broadway, opened its doors on Friday, Feb. 17, and features 11 styling chairs and all the signature features that define the Drybar "experience."
"Drybar is thrilled to become a part of the Westchester community," said Alli Webb, founder of Drybar. "White Plains is a perfect spot for Drybar and we've been humbled by the response from the local community"
Drybar is based on a simple philosophy: Focus on one thing and be the best at it. For Drybar, that's blowouts. The idea was a natural one for curly-haired founder Webb, a longtime professional stylist, who grew tired of overpaying for blowouts at traditional salons.
Named one of the "100 Brilliant Ideas" by "Entrepreneur Magazine," and one of "New York Magazine's," Boom Brands, Drybar provides professional blowouts at a flat price, regardless of hair length or thickness (wash included).
The list of signature styles reads like a traditional cocktail menu: the Cosmo (lots of loose curls), the Straight Up (straight with a little body), the Southern Comfort (big hair, lots of volume), the Mai Tai (messy and beachy), the Manhattan (sleek and smooth) the Dirty Martini (tousled and textured) and, for the little ladies, the Shirley Temple.
The new location also features Drybar's signature design, including custom Italian chairs, tufted fabric walls, marble bars with built-in phone docking stations, and flat screens featuring cult favorite chick flicks.

The snow began to fall the day of our departure. When I checked JFK's website for flight info, I saw that almost all the flights leaving between the one-hour time frame as mine were canceled….except my flight! With fingers crossed and a cell-phone text alert engaged, we piled into my aunt and uncle's SUV with our small city of luggage. Only 2 suitcases held personal belongings. The rest were packed full of the donation of soccer uniforms, deflated soccer balls, as well as an accumulation of shoes, clothes, and school supplies that we'd been buying the previous months.
The hour and a half drive from Connecticut to JFK took more than four hours. Once at the airport, we breezed easily through security and sat at the gate waiting, and waiting, and waiting. After a few hours, our plane was doused with what looked like anti-freeze and we took off for Morocco. Upon landing, I had been hoping to leave and explore Casablanca during our 10 hour layover. We were not able to leave the airport, though, and the airline comped us a small, surreal hotel on site saying that we couldn't wait in the airport for such a long layover. The hotel had narrow, lavender hallways and music from the movie Casablanca pumped in just a tad too loud. Between naps, we snacked on small cups of strong coffee and lamb chops served up with argon oil, olives, and local goat cheese. Eventually our layover ended and we sat at the gate next to two ladies from Guinea – one in a dark black burka and the other with no head covering, and a gaggle of 7 children between them. The kids climbed over our luggage, ate our potato chips, and looked at us with wide eyes. Despite being from Guinea, they spoke Arabic and not Susu or French. Once on the plance, the flight from Casablanca to Conakry, Guinea left on time and landed early. After gathering our bulk of baggage and loading it into a hatch back car (!!), we found ourselves driving through the dark Conakry night.
Even though it was well past 3 am, the dirty roads were crowded with people and noise. A nightclub had people coming and going, the smell of grilled goat wafted through the air, blending with the more acrid stench of gasoline and dust. Our group decided it was too late to make the four hour drive to Port Kamsar, so we hunted out a hotel. A friendly local girl jumped in our car to give us directions to first one, then another, and finally a third hotel before we found one that had somebody on site awake. I slept like the dead in the room provided while the boys – my boyfriend and his brothers – passed the early morning with the night guard sharing beers and catching up.
First Impressions
Africa seems much like Nicaragua on the surface in that both are developing countries. Many of the homes are small, square concrete or adobe with tin roofs, although here in Guinea, these are peppered with even smaller round mud huts with grass roofs. There is also trash everywhere, a sad fact I also observed in Nicaragua, which here is the result of having no trash collection system – at least none that I've seen. The markets also look very similar, selling a familiar array of large carrots, onions, and plastic wares made in China. The bananas here are bright green on the outside and ripe and sweet on the inside. Oranges are sold with the hard, green outer skin already peeled and piled high in plastic bins carried on the head of the seller. The okra are large and the size of my hand, and the mango tree in front of the house I'm living in holds the promise of deliciousness to come, with small, green mangos dangling temptingly throughout, and one larger ripe one way out of reach at the top.
The women in the markets are dressed in a bright, beautiful array of colors. The material is a type of batik and printed from wax, yet with colors that look as fresh as the day there was painted. I am in the minority when I don't have my head covered. In this Muslim country, there are a few women walking around in burkas, yet more have beautiful African fabrics wound around their heads to match their outfits and lend some protection from the sun. The women carry baskets on their heads filled with fresh bread, ice, or whatever else they may be selling, and many have fat, healthy babies tied to their backs. Everybody I've encountered is friendly and helpful, laughing at my shaky language skills and eager to help me learn more.
I've been enjoying home cooked meals served with sauces made from the endless supply of fish mixed with peanut butter, sweet potato leaves, tomato paste, and onions all served over a bed of white rice. Coffee is less common here than I prefer. When encountered, it's Nescafe served over a generous supply of sweetened condensed milk. What is more prevalent is a strong tea called Atayah, which is served very sweet and hot in small shot glasses. The men are constantly cooking this up, gathered in groups around a small charcoal stove and each waiting their turn for the one or two shot glasses going around.
The poverty here in Guinea is profound. Guinea is ranked 178th of 187 countries on the United Nations Development Program. Poverty is more prevalent in the rural areas, and I am in a city right now, which means that what I'm seeing is the wealthier area. Even here, many homes have little to no furniture or other possessions. Electricity comes on in the neighborhoods for 3-6 hours each evening. That lack of access to electricity means that people do not have refrigerators or rely on anything electric to make their lives easier. Laundry is done in a bucket and hung out to dry, meals are cooked over charcoal, and showers are taken with a bucket. When the electric comes on, their is a rush by everyone to charge their cell phones. With only one electric strip on hand, everyone shares the supply to ensure that each phone, or more rarely camera, is charged in the small window of time the electricity is flowing.

The Donations
The donations of soccer clothes and soccer balls were received with BIG smiles and excitement! For days, our room was a flurry of activity as people dug through the treasures to find their size and favorite style of soccer clothes. The local soccer team came by after a game playing plastic horns and carrying the large trophy they had just won. Everybody wanted to shake hands, pose for pictures, and say THANK YOU!! Thanks to those who made donations of cash to help with the baggage fees – they were much appreciated!
Other gifts of clothes, shoes, and school supplies have also been distributed. Notebooks were especially appreciated, as most kids simply use scrap paper stapled together. Also met with welcome smiles were new shoes and fresh clothes without holes in them. I am only sad that we don't have even more to give. The need here is significant, and it feels like a whole shipping container of shoes, clothes, and notebooks still wouldn't be enough to fill the need.
Guinea comes with new language challenges as English is extremely rare and Spanish non-existent. That means that I again find myself in the humble position of learning from scratch. I began studying French and learning phrases in Susu before I left the country and am grateful that I did. Now just over a week into my stay, I can hold a very basic conversation in both languages and I am learning more words each day. I'm very excited at how much I can understand, both due to what I've learned so far and because of language similarities between French and Spanish.
I spent much of yesterday with the group of women who live in the compound here. We made videos of them dancing while the young children tried to photo bomb the shots. They also helped as I worked the Peace Corp manual for the Susu language. The manual is incomplete, meant to be part of a larger training with a teacher, so the ladies were helping me fill in the blanks. That means that I am again falling back on sign language to get my point across. It works, and gives plenty of opportunity for misunderstanding and laughter.
I will keep you all updated as I am able! The lack of electricity makes internet use challenging. The café I am in now is the only one in town. It takes 45 minutes just to get gmail to load! I am grateful that my sister has offered to keep La Adventura updated for me!
For now, au revoir!

The Schuman Trophy has been a fixture on the Commission's calendar for 20 years, with teams from each department playing each other and raising money for children's charities.
But this year's event — held on May 21 and sponsored by the likes of Volvo and Belgian financial services firm Easyvest — ended in chaos when a player from the Commission's interpretation department and one from the administration department came to blows. The former ended up in hospital being treated for concussion.
It is said to have started when admin sneered, "You're nothing but a translator!"

The most significant changes include the addition of "IT Priorities" and the "PowerCenter."
IT Priorities is a proprietary market intelligence program and monthly report that combines user survey information with audience behavior tracking across CNET Networks' enterprise Web sites. These sites include Builder.com and News.com.
Content included in âPowerCenterâ ranges from highly interactive "engagement marketing" programs, such as Webcasts, to white papers and case studies.
âCNET Networks is using the power of the Internet to redefine media's role in forging relationships between technology companies and the professionals responsible for making high-stakes buying decisions," said Barry Briggs, CNET Networks' COO, in a statement. "Our goal is to give these buyers all the tools they need to make more informed and effective decisions in less time."
